NYS disability

does anyone know if you stay out for the max 12 weeks under FMLA, can you collect NYS disability?

I believe they are two different programs....


NYS Disability pays you a certain amount weekly for 6 weeks for v-birth and 8 weeks for c-section.

The FMLA is a law to safeguard your job for up to three months. The company must have more then 50 employees and you must work for 20 consecutive weeks to be eligible. This is unpaid time.

Here's a link to more FMLA info..

I believe disability & FMLA run concurrently but I am not positive.
